Puma frost is made up of layer upon layer of organic frozen material. There's a place where you can see what's happening inside the spomofrost. Scientists say, the amount of carbon that's stored in the pomo frost is about doubleWhat happens if that temperature goes up, or for some reason it thaws a little bit more? What follows is disaster. We don't want it back in the atmosphere because carbon dioxide contributes to climate change. But a vicious cycle has already started. As the planet warms, all dead animals and plants start to decompose. More decomposition means more CO2 release into the atmosphere.
